Mint Motif Giveaway!

Hello, there!  Happy Friday…

We are getting ready to head to a lake for a week.  Will be meeting my in-laws there, along with my sister-in-law and her family.  They live in Africa, so we don't get to see them often.  Can't wait to see them in person instead of just in my prayers! We are all going, but Roxie has to stay here.  She will love life, as Grandpa will be staying at the house here with her.  Happy pup.

I will post from there, but I wanted to get a giveaway up before leaving. 🙂

So… a few weeks ago, I was shopping at iheartpapers and noticed a new line of stamps that I liked called Mint Motif.  I bought a set and loved them, especially since they are made in the US and therefore stamp great.

I then found out that they were designed by one of my favorite card artists,  Kimberly Crawford. And, being the kind person she is, she offered to send me sets to giveaway here.  What a doll.

First, I thought I would share a few cards I made with these stamps.  For the background on this one, I mounted all the square stamps on a big block and stamped them together.  Then stamped on red and punched out some hearts…

The orientation of these greetings is fabulous.

This one has a bit of Hero Arts love in the background.  The stars are stamped with the dotted square and then finished with Glossy Accent dots.

So… I have two sets to giveaway – one each to two lucky winners.  Just leave a comment here by Monday night at 11:59pmEST telling me your current favorite stamp line and I will pick winners.  Look at these lovely sets…

    I gotta say that I have more Hero Arts stamps than any other stamp company so therefore I must love them the most!! I do really like these Mint Motif stamps too. Love the graphic aspect of them. Have a great reunion at the lake this week. Jan in Tucson

    I actually saw these a few weeks ago, and I LOVE the orientation of the sentiments. Very unique.

  15. Donna says:

    I have been admiring the innovative creations of the PTI team, but have not had the chance to use clear stamps, yet. (Kinda have ta buy from a certain company right now!)

    You’re an amazing woman, Jennifer!

  17. Andrea says:

    I love My Favorite Things. Thanks for the chance to win.

  18. Billie A says:

    Those two sets looks like they would be fun to use, I love the cards you did.
    I really like PTI stamps. They have good quality stamps and quite a variety.
    Although I have been buying clear Hero Arts lately liking the little girl boy stamps they make such cute cards.
    Have an awesome trip sounds like it will be a lot of fun.

  19. pamboe says:

    I just got Paper Trey’s Friendship Jar and Friendship Jar Fillers. I especially love the jar with the artists’ paintbrushes in it.
    I think the jar filled with marbles may be a nice but maybe a little insulting BD card for a guy??? And the pickles for a newly pregnant friend of my daughter’s.

    I love the sentiment set you are giving away.

  20. Linda Gerig says:

    I have always loved Hero Arts stamps. Lid

    I really like her squares and the cards you made with them. So glad your missionary family are home on furlough and you can have some time together. I think she is the one we prayed for about adopting a little boy? Thank you for the give away and introducing us to new people and ideas.

  22. Jeanne says:

    Hero arts–even going back years and years too–is my go-to-fave–but have OH so many that I really like! I really like the saying on these minty onse! LOL 🙂

  23. Tonya NC says:

    I love Hero Arts!

  24. gailanne says:

    PaperTreyInk is my all-time favorite stamp designer, although Hero Arts recently has been nudging for attention in my creative brain! I’m looking forward to the upcoming Stampin’ Up catalog too.

  25. jamie says:

    OMG, I love those cards you made. Simply adorable. My favorite stamps right now are greeting farms. Fun giveaway. Thanks. Jamie

  26. jamie says:

    Love your cards. my favorite stamps now are greeting farms. LOL jamie

  27. Jodi says:

    Those are adorable! I’m completely hooked on Stampin’ Up’s new clear mount stamps. I love the simple dvd case storage.

  28. Stlbarb says:

    I always enjoy your cards and have ‘borrowed’ many of your ideas in my cardmaking. LOVE the glossy dots!

  29. Donna E. says:

    oh wow those are fab cards, jennifer! i esp love the kraft and red combination! 🙂

    thanks for the chance!

  30. lee i. says:

    I love the many choices at Hero Arts.

  31. Abi Bautista says:

    I’m a big fan of “Changito the monkey” from Stampendous. He is just so adorable and I use some quickie glue to adhere brown fun flock on him which makes him fuzzy and I love it. Thanks for the giveaway Jennifer! Always look forward to your posts.

  32. Beth W says:

    I could get lost at that store. They have 74 pages of sale items and I now know Stampendous are my favorite stamps because I love Fluffles. But what I own the most of are Hero Arts. Hubby will probably never let me visit your blog again!

  33. karen says:

    I love the Hero Arts Artists Proof line – especially the 50’s look of the “Simply Handmade” set and “Make Your Own”, and the “Metal Flourish” stamp.

  34. Hi, I’m new to stamping so I’ve only really had the chance to stamp with some wood-mounted Stampin Up stamps (which have been wonderful)and a couple of cheap Kaiser Craft clear stamps (which have been awful). I’d never heard of PTI and HA until I came across your blog (so excited now that I read it often enough to know the acronyms! hehe). I’m loving some of the designs! So here’s hoping I can con my husband into letting me buy a few more… a girl can never have enough stamps right???? 😉

  35. Dianne Johnson says:

    I especially love Hero Arts. I love their cling stamps first; their wood stamps, and even their clear stamps. I have come to appreciate the quality of their clear stamps as opposed to those that are not made in the US. I also like Magenta stamps very much. Thanks for your blog…love all of your cards.

  36. Oh, I fall in love with almost every stamp I see. But my heart lately has been with Hero Art stamps. One of each please! Love this line too and how clever to put them altogether for a background.

  37. I really love my Unity KOTM from July and August last year. Not sure what the line is called but I use them a great deal. Thanks for giving us the chance to win!

  38. Melissa says:

    I love Hero Arts stamps and Stampin’ Up stamps…especially now that they are finally making their stamp sets in cling! WOOHOO! Love how you combined all the little squares and stamped with them at once to make the background…what a fabulous idea. Enjoy the lake! Nothing better than time at the lake with family in the summer.

  39. Doreen says:

    Hi,Jennifer love the cloud pattern so sweet! Love the card with the 2 hearts,colours and everything looks so nice ,it really stands out.
    Hmm the 1st stamps that I got to know of was Hero arts ,so they are the ones I like alot (or have alot of)but as the years goes by I got to see alot of other stamps from a lot of different companys .. now I would choese the design of the stamps and how versatile it is.Love the tim holtz stamps , they are so fun to use . As for clear stamps , the images when printed out should be sharp and clear.Hero arts ,Tim holtz,Stampavie ( they have nice and sharp images) Prima,imaginisce,Inkadinkado have nice and sharp images too. but I have stamp from (Fiskars – Latte Love was not not sharp and clear the images- so sad the design and everything I like but the print was ….or are they trying to have a grungy distress look!? that should be the 1st and last clear stamp I will have of that brand!)

  40. Serina says:

    I like Hero Arts’ stamps a lot. I always looking for a store that carrying a lot more Hero Arts’ stamps around my area—-I finally got one!!!

  41. Julie from Pearl City, HI says:

    The Greeting Farm has the cutest little Hula Girl, Ukulele Girl, Surfer Boy and Geisha Girl stamps. I live in Hawaii, so they are very relevant to my culture. I hosted a “Make it, Take it” at my local craft store and everyone loved the cards we made.

  42. Regina says:

    Cute stamps.. & great cards. My favorite stamps are Hero Arts. Love those wooden design blocks stamps and all the background clings stamps. Enjoy your vacation!

  43. Adoree says:

    My favorites….PTI and Hero Arts!

  44. Helen says:

    What wonderful ideas once again. Such simple lines but oh so gorgeous and useful for so many occasions. I always love Hero Arts, Penny Black and Stampin Up stamps. (Some of my very first stamps are still my favourites).

  45. Helen says:

    Wow… So simple but so gorgeous. So useful for so many occasions. My favourite stamps would have to be Hero Arts, Penny Black and Stampin’Up.

  46. Letap says:

    Jen, enjoy your trip to the lake with family. So hard to state a fav manufacturer, but living in UK I have to admit that stamps made in USA are superior – current favs are clear or cling stamps, and therefore Hero or PTI have to be top of the list. Background and word sets often being the first ‘go to’. Thanks for the chance of give-away.

  47. Cass says:

    Oh that first card is divine! I love the colours! 🙂

    My fave stamps at the moment are PTI.

  48. Ragnhild says:

    Btw I love the card:)

  49. Marlena P. says:

    I currently have so many favorites it is so hard to choose. I love Unity stamps. Thanks for sharing such great cards!
